I was afraid you'd say that.

I agree.  My problem is that I'm trying to create a curve for Epson
VFA on a 2100, and there isn't a pre-existing curve.  As a first step
I'm trying to do it for Epson Enhanced Matte, which most of us use as
a proofing paper.  I'm doing this because, like a number of people, I
find that the supplied Cone 2880 curve is putting down too much ink,
and putting waves into the paper.  Also EEnhMatte is a lot cheaper to
experiment with.  

I could probably solve the problem with EEnhMatte by setting certain
parameters in QTRGui, but the VFA problem remains.
